Most didn't perceive it in any way, but some of us heard the #undertone, calling us to the night and the life therein. Some ran, but others of us embraced the darkness to the full. My sister became the Great Witch Undying, and I turned into the King of All Vampires.

Yes! Love it. Embracing darkness to the fullest is so fitting for this month of Samhain 🙌🏽✨

He hears birds on the roof, an #undertone of hoots.

"Lot of owls at #Hollowkeep, huh?"

"Yes. They feed in #darkness, you know."

"Um. Cool?"

She smiles.

"Yes. Now turn off the lights, and let's get wicked."

When the sun rises, she's alone.

Sated.

#Darkness

Packed in here between
a green blanket
and a cart of belongings
perhaps this is where I
belong, in longings

So too I'm joined by
the skeletons and ghosts
of my past actions

“The ghosts of my past actions” - very relatable.

Horns
He simply said, “Look at the world,
and tell me your God still listens.”
The angels, gleaming and soft,
sent thoughts and prayers
like coins into the wishing wells of graves
hollow currency for the dying.

#scribtober He sat there in the #darkness. Chest pounding. Pulse racing. The spirit talker yelled: DEATH. DESTRUCTION. DECAY. He centred himself. Breathed and felt calm once more.
"Begone. You have no power over me."
And....all was quiet once more.

She noticed his eyes glittered from liuqui. “Did you have a vision tonight?”

He nodded brusquely and sat next to her on the bed. “I should not be here.” He whispered, letting his head fall into his hands. It smeared the skull makeup, and somehow it made his face more ghoulish. #Scribtober

Walking haunted
Old soul under
October moon
Not at all afraid
Of haints or hollars
But rather all
The internal ghost
And shadows
Animating the bones
Trudging through
Mythical
Mountain pass
On the way to
Charon's ferry
Not hoping to
Make the crossing

She turned to face the Reverend.

He stumbled upon seeing her nakedness, and he seemed torn between moving toward her or remaining on his knees.

"Come to me," she called, letting the magic of the Moon flow through her words. And he crawled to her

He’s nothing but dirt and bones
A skull that grins and moans

Emerging from his slumber
At the witching hour

Coming out of his grave
To look for a slave

Every Hallow’s Eve -
He never wants to leave

Skull

Inside my skull, a drumroll of disorder and design,
logic in pressed uniform, marching
emotion wild, barefoot,
dancing out of step.
#poetry #scribetober #skull
@vonasvald.bsky.social

Inside my skull, a drumroll of disorder and design,
logic in pressed uniform, marching
emotion wild, barefoot,
dancing out of step.
They trade blows like scholars,
who never learned compromise,
logic swinging against the prefrontal cortex,
while emotion bleeds poetry on the limbic.
Fear hides against the amygdala sneering
while the memories search the hippocampus for yesterdays leftovers.
I am a battlefield,
echoing with their hymn
In this war that never ends,
with noise that reminds me I’m alive.
